This semi-soft, raw cow's milk cheese is easily identifiable by its line of vegetable ash bisecting it horizontally, a tradition that goes back to this cheese's creation in France's Jura Mountains. At the end of the day after the gigantic wheels of Comte were made, the little bit of leftover milk was poured into a vat and ash was spread on top to protect it and prevent it from forming a rind. The next morning's milking was added on top of the ash, et voila! Supple, smooth paste, colored pale yellow, lies beneath a brine-scrubbed rind. It's mildly pungent, fruity, and nutty. Excellent breakfast cheese.
